Yelland, died at 3 a.m. Wednesday, January 20th, 1926, at her home,• corner of. Andrew "and Mary streets. Her death followed slowly after bodily weakness and disease of about 4 months. She came from Tubb's Mill, Carlsayes Parish, Cornwall, England, in May, 1868, first for a few months to Bell - villa, Ont., and then for 10 years to various locations on .Prince Edward Island. Rev. Dr. Pascoe, one-time pastor of James St. church, was one of her friends among Bible Christian ministers on the Island. Mrs. Jas. Howard, of town, was as a little girl another Island friend at the parson- age, as also' was her sister, Mrs. Charles Wilson. Again coming to Ontario her homes were in Camp- bellford and in Lambeth previous to the Methodist Union. For about 30 years after the union she was in parsonages from Huron south and from Elgin west to borders of the province. Always feeble, yet feeling the responsibilities of life;, she tried. to influence events to the best ends. Her work in life was not showy and much was unseen. Only now and again did her friends glimpse her helpfulness to those crossing her path. Church work claimed most of her interest. During middle age her greatest activity was in the Sab- bath school. The Epworth League, W. M. S. the W. C. T. C. and the Ladies' Aid of her various neighbor- hoods also secured her efforts. Her nature was • affectionate and some- times she sorrowed greatly because of never again seeing her old home and old -home faces. She suffered. severely at intervals during the .last two weeks of life. Cowper's poem (an old B, C. hynm) "Vital spark of'heavenly flathe Quit, 0 quit, this mortal frame," was frequently on her lips. Most of the rest of her time was spent in calling for her deceased husband, and in beseeching God to take her home. She was conscious almost to the last and took great satisfaction inhaving her family around her. Life's workers disappear, but life's Work must go on. May we in ' olir turn help others for others have greatly helped us, The daughters, Annie and Bessie will continue to reside at home, . and the sons, Gibbs' at Windsor, and Sampson, at Port Pell', as before her death. The de- ceased was interred in the Exeter''. cemetery on Friday°last. The funeral service was held at the !tome with Rev. Clysdale of Main St. United 'church officiating. The pall bear- ers were Messrs, IL El, Hunson, 0, E. Tuekey, Chas. Cann., 3:'14, Per- kins, E. A. Follick and W. H. Sohn - sten. Among the labral tributes was a beautiful sheath of roses from the Official Board and Sunday School at Port Perry. ports actors and Audit re for the past year, and for the election of three Directors, two for a three year term and one for one year, and two Aud- itors, and for any other business in the interests of the Company.
